Good culture Good work/life balance Starting salary not great, but there are good annual merits and promotion salary increases. Interesting products if you like aerospace industry. Excellent lateral movement opportunities. Excellent employee school program.

Location - Most work opportunities are in Connecticut. One of the highest cost of living states in the USA. Fixed salary, no paid overtime for most employees. Health care insurance options are limited. All high deductible plans with just one provider.

Pros

Flexible work week. As long as you reach 40 hours for the week, doesn't matter when you come/go each day. Food is pretty good.

Cons

Quick growth to P3, but growth after that stagnates/fails to be competitive in salary

Pros

Decent pay and good benefits.

Cons

Personnel reporting to me had apparently looked up my political affiliation (which I had never mentioned) and took exception to it by sabotaging work that I had supervised. This was well before 2022 - actually 2015-2016 (2022 is earliest review date I could select). I was just now remembering it. This polarized political posture was a function of the plant being near Harrisburg, PA which, at least then, was a somewhat "redneckish" area. I have never discussed my politics at work, so it seemed absurd of them to look up my party affiliation and take issue with it.
